NANO BEGINS TOMORROW!/SEQUENCE & PROBLEM/SOLUTION

SENIORS: Last-minute preparations abound! Fill out that packet so you have ideas for your novel, the writing of which begins TOMORROW!!!  Your word-count goal is 20,000 words; there will be a benchmark of 5,000 words for each week.  Each benchmark will be worth 100 points; if you don't reach your benchmark, you'll get a %.  For example, if you reach 2,500 words at the end of the first week, you'll receive 50 points.  Write your novel in Google Docs, then copy and paste into the Nano box; there will be an automatic word count of what you paste.  Happy Writing!
